The mother of a teenage boy who is autistic says her son has missed school due to repeated issues with his bus not arriving.
Catherine Williamson’s son Andrew relies on Education Authority (EA) transport to bring him to his special school in Ballymena from his home in Doagh.
She said it hasn’t turned up “so many times that he now feels that he is at fault. He feels that he is to blame”.
The Education Authority apologised and blamed staff sickness, mechanical issues and recent poor weather conditions.
